Toronto 2016: Off to a violent start

Toronto 2016: Off to a violent start with 'Magnificent Seven,' 'Free Fire'

Nostalgia and reinvention, two seemingly oppositional yet highly complementary forces in Hollywood, seem to be dominating some of the fall season’s major film events — or at least their opening-night attractions.

Two weeks ago, the Venice Film Festival opened with the world premiere of Damien Chazelle’s exquisite musical “La La Land,” a sublimely old-fashioned yet newfangled attempt to revive and renew the audience’s affection for a mostly bygone tradition of filmmaking. At its most heart-stopping moments, “La La Land” takes on the ethereal quality of an L.A. ghost story, one in which Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling find themselves haunted by the lingering and benevolent spirits of Stanley Donen and Jacques Demy.

Rapturously received in Venice and in Telluride (where it screened over Labor Day weekend), “La La Land” will make its next stop here in Toronto. That festival kicked off its own star-studded proceedings Thursday evening with the world premiere of Antoine Fuqua’s “The Magnificent Seven,” a much stiffer and far less imaginative attempt to reclaim a largely abandoned genre from the studio ash heap.
